Digital Story Reflection
I actually enjoyed doing this digital story because it's new to me, but it was very easy to learn how to do. I could see myself doing a digital story again in my other classes if I have to do some kind of presentation. I enjoyed researching information on my topics the most because these are actual things I want to do before I die. I also liked recording my information because I think I sound different on a microphone. I don't really know if I have any personal uses for this outside of school. Maybe I could use this if i wanted to make like a music video for fun or something like that.

Podcast Reflection
1. You need to know how to record your voice, and you need to know how to use audacity and microphones.
2. It was easy to use the microphone and record things.
3. I had trouble actually putting it the sounds on my blog, and turning the recording into an MP3.
4. If your sick you can know what happens in class by a podcast, and you can also have a vido diary or in this case a recorded diary.

Cloud Computing
The founder of s file sharing site called Megaupload, is in court as the U.S. Department of Justice seeks to extradite him and other company officials on criminal charges. The site was shut down and seven people were indicted accusing them of operating an "international organized criminal enterprise responsible for massive worldwide online piracy of copyrighted works." Four of the people were charged at the request of the U.S. government. Megaupload, which traffic-tracking service Alexa ranked as the world's 72nd most visited website before it was taken down, allowed users to share and download files -- many of which were copyrighted works made available for download without permission, according to the U.S. authorities.They said the operation had generated more than $175 million in illegal profits through advertising revenue and the sale of premium memberships. Authorities have seized the company's servers and domain names and frozen $50 million in assets. The users of this site could be charged with stealing, and i think people will think twice now about copyrights.
New Technology
The newly released Kindle Fire is causing quite the stir. It is the new challenger to the Ipad. The same week the Kindle Fire was released, Apple shows off their latest version of the Iphone. With these new technologies booming, the price of other formally expensive items has gone down. This makes the other items almost an impulse purchase.Experts believe that every member in a house would be able to afford a basic Kindle ebook reader, or Ipod because of the cost decline.
